We're getting better at this :)

Alhamdulillah, things are getting better :D

We moved into our new appt in NC and finally got some time to relax n reconnect without the stress of things weighing down on us!

I got some really constructive advice about my last post and insha'Allah I plan on implementing it in my day to day life.

Marriage is so wonderful, but you will never experience this kind of closeness or relationship with any one other than your spouse therefore it really helps to have friends who know what they're talking about.

Of course experience is the best teacher.

And alhamdulillah I have been blessed with a very supportive and helpful husband... we are just having to learn how to adjust our habits to better suit each other.

I guess the stress level goes up whenever we meet, to some extent, because we always have something huge looming whenever I visit him.

The first time I had gone over the summer, it was my in-laws and ramadaan. This time it was the move... and we always have such a time crunch to get things done in.

I mean this stuff is hard for experienced and long-married couples and we're just new at everything.

So this post is primarily to thank the people who provided me with awesome advice and my more 'seasoned' married people :) Jazaak Allah khayr.

Oh, and one of the advice that I got was for hubby and I to make a list of chores and to divide it by preferences. Like I know he hates doing dishes, so I can do that and maybe he can do something that I don't particularly enjoy in return. But of course, on the weekends :)

Thanks everyone!
